We will be bringing our Lumenotbots along for the bonkers downtown party that is Fool-Moon.

First we will meet at Design Lab 1 at 5.30pm to gather all of our materials, before heading down to Slauson Middle School for 7.20pm. There we will share out the Lumenotbots into Luminaries and march down with the crowd at 8pm. By 8.30 we’ll be downtown where there’ll be live music, projection mapping and laser shows, food, booze and djs into the night.

If you turn south on Huron Parkway from Plymouth, turn right into the first driveway. You will see a parking structure on your right (blue parking) and just beyond is a lot (yellow and guest parking). Building 18 is directly across the street from the structure. There is a white marble “egg” sculpture at the door. If you travel by bus, they will let you out right at this same general location.

Last Tuesday Michael Flynn and I checked out the various spaces for potential installations at the North Campus Reseach Center including the tunnel mentioned previously.

Heres what the tunnel looks like:

There are 13 buttresses with 2 power points per buttress (amazing!) and a small shelf on top to possibly house electronics on top.

Foot traffic is quite light but people walk in small groups. Footsteps are fairly quiet when compared to voices but that might be because of winter rubber boots.]

Its quite brightly lit but theres still some potential for gentle projections.

Also there are a lot of other spaces for works that Maureen is interested in filling;

We will be meeting this Friday at 12pm at DL1 to talk about this project – a potential commercial venture, and next weeks Lumenotbot party (Keep next Wednesday 29th 8pm-10pm free if you want to join in! – Workshops at Alice Llyod hall on Monday and Tuesday evening. I’ll give more info on Friday).

Starting on January 17th we will begin this season’s weekly gatherings of Electronic Lunch.

Our regular meeting time will be at Noon every Friday. If you wish to join our mailing list then please send me a message at conorb [at] umich.edu and I’ll be able to keep you up to date with occasional miscellaneous extras!
